I have a procedural question… Do you cross things out on completion or when you make a mistake / don’t have to do it?

Personally, because I am a nutcase, I write my to do lists with little check boxes on the left. Then I can cross things out if they are wrong or don’t need to be done and check things off when they are done.

While this sounds totally mad at this point it comes in very very handy when taking notes in meetings. Several lines of notes about something, then oooh somebody wants something doing, you make the note and put a check box in the margin. Then carry on with the notes. Then you can extract all of the todos and make a single page of todos in which case you draw a little arrow in the box to say, this isn’t necessarily completed but it is now being housed elsewhere in the notebook. Okay I might be mad.
